11Salesmanship Does!
13Don't let the word "selling" scare you, for it is remarkably easy for any man of average intelligence to become a first class salesman. And then your future can be as big as you want to make it.
15The majority of men are shackled down to poorly paid positions because they are either afraid to strike out for better things—or they condemn themselves to a life of drudgery because of preconceived notions about what they can do.
17Take salesmanship, for instance. To the vast majority, a salesman has to be "born" to his task. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Possibly you, think that selling is a "gift."
19You cannot be blamed for what you think—but you are utterly to blame if you do not investigate as to the soundness of your thoughts. For what you may think may be the thing that is tying you down to deadly routine and poor pay.
21Proof That You Can Be a Master Salesman
23During the past eighteen years the National Salesmen's Training Association has taken men from all walks of life and made them into producing sales men. There's a statement you should investigate—but look at a few typical examples of the thousands of success stories in our files and literature:
25A. H. Ward, Chicago, earned better than $1,000 a month within one year after he completed his training. Today he is an executive of Postl's, Chicago. J. H. Cash, Atlanta, Ga., increased his earnings from $75 to $500 a month. F. M. Harris, a telegraph operator, increased his earnings to $6,000 a year—and is now a Sales Manager.
27Why You Can Be Taught to Sell
29You may think it remarkable that this Association can teach men at home during spare time to sell so quickly and easily. But there is nothing remarkable about it—for Salesmanship is governed by fundamental rules and principles. There are certain ways to attract attention, arouse interest and make prospects act—certain ways to overcome objections, batter down prejudices, outwit competition and get results. Once you know these secrets of master salesmanship, you can duplicate any of the successes this remarkable System of Salesmanship Training has been responsible for.
31Exceptional Demand for Trained Salesmen
